Wow just wow

Where do I begin!?
If youre looking for natural photography, great communication, and a duo that feel like they're part of your wedding party. Get booking now!
Tom and Jess are a married couple who work together like an absolute dream in creating magical photos on your special day.
Tom photographed our special day, and for a couple that aren't comfortable with having photos taken, he made us feel comfortable as soon as we met, having a laugh and banter made us feel he was part of the wedding party which put us at ease straight away. He did so much more than photography at our wedding, he gave advice about doing the dress up, and even helping to fix my dress hoop when it broke etc and did anything to go above and beyond he acted like a wedding planner/ coordinator in our absence of good management from our venue.we are overwhelmed at the beauty of our sneak peak photos. thank you so much again guys, what a duo!

JTR are phenomenal!

We booked with Jess and Tom for the exclusive package after a recommendation from another couple.

They are a great team and go above and beyond to ensure everything is perfect. They're not just photographers and videographers but help with anything you may need for the day and both kept me and my partner at ease.

They gave recommendations on how to style the ceremony room to ensure they had the best view possible to be able to create the best images and videos.

Which leads me on to the quality we have received, we received our preview within 24 hours (even on a bank holiday Monday!) and honestly we are truly blown away. They are beautiful and I couldn't be happier - we are so eager to receive the full download of all the images as we can tell how amazing they will be. The teaser video was also stunning and including immense drone shots.

I cannot thank Jess and Tom enough, they were truly phenomenal and I will recommend them to anybody who will listen!

Thank you so much for being involved in our day ❤️❤️❤️

Simply wonderful!

Jess & Tom!

We booked JTR based solely on reviews online and we were not disappointed! We spoke to Jess on the phone the week before our wedding who told us what to expect, which really put us at ease.

They arrived as we were getting ready and immediately fit in. They both have a great sense of humour and are just lovely people.
Jess helped my maid of honour get me into my dress!

They blended into the guests and although we have only had our preview photos, they managed to get some amazing shots. The ‘formal’ photos were so well organised and only took a short amount of time - which was great!

Continuing to blend in through the speeches and wedding breakfast then into the evening. They even brought their drone for some beautiful shots in the field next to the venue. We had their photobooth too which was a great addition!

We got 80 photos, a teaser video and a behind the scenes video within 3 days!
Their prices were great and they were both so professional!

If you’re looking for a photographer & videographer that are down to earth, make you feel relaxed and are fabulous at their job - you’ve found them!

Thank you both so much, can’t wait to see the final results ♥️

Our perfect wedding day!

JTR photography, where do I start with this incredible couple! Here goes…they were highly recommended by our venue and as soon as I went on their website and FB page, we were sold! It was their full day package post on FB that told us, we had found the perfect photographers and looked no further.

From the moment we met them, they put us at ease, especially Tom with his ‘dad’ jokes! They guided us gracefully through the day and turned nerves into smiles! You always want that ‘one’ perfect picture but gosh, we were overwhelmed with the amount of pictures that captured our wedding day perfectly!

Not only are Jess & Tom incredibly professional and talented, but so down to earth, friendly and very hands on. Jess even helped me in my dress and prepared our wedding bouquets.

I can’t recommend JTR photography highly enough, my advice to anyone wanting the perfect photographers, stop looking because here they are! Thank you both so much for capturing our magical day that we will treasure forever! 🥰❤️

Above and beyond

We planned to have a videographer for our day as my grandparents were unable to attend. We booked JTR initially just to film the ceremony and speeches and a few weeks before we decided to increase this to full day...and I'm so so glad we did.
We actually had an unfortunate incident wherein another vendor caused significant issues for our video (blocking cameras, poor communication etc. - you get the jist). This meant a lot of our footage was effectively unusable, despite Tom's best efforts on the day to get around and avoid the issues. To be absolutely clear, everything Tom did was exceptional and sadly another vendor was the cause of these problems.
Fast forward to receiving our videos and we couldn't be happier with what Tom and Jess created for us. They found ways to make the videos perfect for my grandparents to watch our day and feel like they were there and really part of it all. We even had our trailer video by the next day which was amazing!
I've titled this 'above and beyond' though because of the extra bits that made the experience with Jess and Tom so positive;
Their communication is fantastic, we were kept up to date through the whole process and no question was too much hassle.
Tom was an absolute delight to have at our day - he blended in with our guests, by which I mean he was not intrusive in the moments that mattered, but was chatty and friendly with all of our friends and family.
Not only this, but he even stood holding a cold hairdryer at me to cool down before I put my dress on because it was an absolutely boiling day haha! His presence during the bridal prep with my MUA, hair stylist, bridesmaids and mum was so fun and calming all at once.
I'd definitely recommend booking Jess & Tom. My only regret is that we didn't book them for both photography AND videography.
Thank you both so much.

The best around

we chose jtr not only for their work but their amazing personalities we knew we couldnt have someone who didnt match our personality and we chose the perfect person, jess was not only our photographer but our go to on the day, all her tips and advice that we wouldnt have thought of, she dressed me as no one could do my dress correctly, she did my shoes whilst everyone else was busy, she dried my flowers because my bridesmaids forgot she literally was the bridesmaid i never knew i needed!

all day she was attentive and professional, our pictures say it all how relaxed and comfortable we were with her, it wasnt until i actually watched a guests video of our first dance i realised jess sorted my train and made sure it was picture perfect, all day she was just on the ball even after 11 long hours she was still going strong thinking of everything!

we never will be able to thank her enough for the precious memories we have been given and the memories from our day with her, if your looking for your photographer and are reading this you just found her

First class from start to finish ⭐

We used JTR photography for our wedding videography, and I couldn't recommend them enough. Tom was amazing, and made me feel so at ease. He was brilliant with my 2 young children too, who thought he was fab!! We got our teaser video back in a very short space of time and I was truly blown away 🥹 it means so much to have our amazing day captured on film and Tom did the best job. we can't wait to see the final result! I would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone.
You guys really are amazing ❤️

100% recommend!

What can I say, JTR Photography were absolutely amazing! So friendly and so down to earth, I’m absolutely thrilled that we chose Jess for our big day! The photos are beautiful and I am absolutely over the moon with them! Jess was a lovely, calming and helpful influence when she came to photo me getting ready the morning of our wedding and despite only leaving our wedding in the evening, we woke up to our gorgeous preview gallery the next morning! We also hired their LOVE letters which looked fantastic and they were delivered and collected so quick and easily. If you are considering booking Jess or Tom for your wedding I would 100% recommend them! Fantastic!

Absolutely amazing.

We could not recommend Jess enough, from start to finish everything was more than perfect. The contact upon booking, keeping in touch until the big day, everyone at our wedding commented how lovely she was and how no one noticed she was taking pictures. We don’t have the words to describe our photos, they are more than we could have wished for and will forever be grateful.

The best around!

Where do I start.. Jess at JTR is fantastic! Not only is she friendly and welcoming, she genuinely can’t do enough for you on your big day especially when you are feeling stressed, she’s there to help calm the nerves while getting in all the behind the scene shots too!
From the moment we met Jess at a wedding fayre, we just knew she was the one we wanted to photograph our wedding. We went home that night and booked her straight away and I’m so glad we did! She listened to everything we wanted on the day including some shots I was desperate to achieve and it was just perfect, all our guests also commented on how friendly she was too! On top of it all, after our wedding we got a preview of the photos the next day (!!) which is just incredible to have when you are still on such a high from the big day 🥹 and then within a few weeks we received our full album! We love our photos and couldn’t have asked for anymore. The best photographer around and we highly recommend to anyone!!

5* isn't enough

We hired jtr photography after finding them on a local Facebook group we initially only booked photos but we then changed our mind to video too which they were more than accommodating to at last minute on the day both of them were absolutely incredible from start to end we didn't want them
To leave they really made our day so special from the laughs and jokes we had with them down to all the help they gave which we really needed I would recommend this team over and over from service to price I can't find a fault

Amazing & outstanding

We booked Jess for our wedding from the day of meeting her at our friends wedding through to our wedding day she was absolutely amazing. She always replied quickly put my mind at ease with questions I had she even gave us a lift in her car when our wedding car never turned up which she did not have to do but she did she will 100% go out of her way to ensure you are having the best time we even got a message the morning of the wedding to say she was on her way and did we need anything picking up on the way or anything fetching it's the little touches with Jess that made us so happy but receiving our photos was the cherry ontop she puts so much effort into her work and it shows in our album its outstanding we couldn't have asked for anything better
